justfoxes Posted 4 July 2015 Share Posted 4 July 2015 What's with all the panicking the betting companies will pick names out of their arses to make money and I can't believe some have added Pearson back into the frame at 50-1 Ffs just shows you that they haven't a clue but all this speculation is just to making city fans panic with the shit ones being mentioned but unfortunately as fans we haven't got a cats left or right bollock of a say who gets the job but I've got a feeling we will be put out of our misery on Monday and the feeling is a good one (still hoping its Klopp !!) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lcfc82 Posted 4 July 2015 Share Posted 4 July 2015 Not a bad manager he has done nothing with any top team he's been with and on top of that hasn't managed in the prem? Not having managed in the prem does not mean he's shit. NP and o'neill hadn't until they got there with us. He's an average manager nothing more, did a good job at Bristol city, got forest out of the shit. Not good enough for where were at now though.

He has no stability his biggest achievement is getting Bristol promoted from L1 its scary he has dropped to 5/2 you can just look at the guy and know he would fail here its too big a job, he would bottle it.

More often than not price shortening occurs off the back of a rumour that was probably started by some pimply oik in their bedroom. Money seems to have come in recently for Cotterill but i'd be very surprised if there was any substance in it, probably just snowballed from an ill informed comment on a forum such as Twitter.

pazzerfox Posted 4 July 2015 Share Posted 4 July 2015 What a hero- I must be in wth a shout f he has watched football over Europe. Which but of the article makes you think he would be suitable? Sounds more Martin Allen then Nigel Pearson with his talk of decorating the canteen. Sometimes people just need to be given a chance....I mean, who knew how good NP would turn out to be when we first appointed him under Mandaric. His structure and attention to detail could be compared to Nigel's in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know how good a manager is though until you give them a chance. Monk and Sherwood have done decent jobs so far and they had no experience of managing in the Premier league.

How do you define 'better' though? If you're talking about a better CV, then there isn't many better than Sven and Hiddink! There is only Jurgen Klopp who i'd really want to be honest but I'll back any manager who takes over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would back whoever takes over meself, To me better would probably be 2 of the 3 you have named,I just don't get why folk would be happy with Lennon as manager or cotterill,I'm sure in time the will go into big things but at the current time there not an improvement in Pearson,where's as 2 of the 3 you named I'm sure would be,no guesses for who the odd one out was :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen Sheringham being interviewed on SSN about him taking over at Stevenage, i'd rather take a flyer and risk on him than bleeding Lennon.

We need to think bigger than this. Also Eddie Howe is a one club man. He proved that after his disasterous time at Burnley. And rowett?

He proved that after his disasterous time at Burnley. And rowett? I would be disappointed if we were a championship team looking at him. Disastrous? That's an exaggeration to say the least. 8th, 13th and signed some of the key players that got them promoted. And if that makes him a one club man then presumably Pearson may as well retire now after his success here and "disastrous" time at Hull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhysm Posted 4 July 2015 Share Posted 4 July 2015 Eddie Howe would be much better choice then cotterill but he has a serious hard on for Bournemouth so not going to happen. He would be the sort of person you would take a chance on. Plays good technical football and develops young players there is nothing to suggest cotterill would be good. All very well saying give these people a chance but he would take us backwards. And you would have to back him if he came in - you would have no choice. That does not mean you can smile and pretend it is great of the owners to appoint someone who is completely unfit for purpose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
